He began his working career as a laborer and chauffeur for Homestake Mining Company. He would also go on to enter the insurance and real estate business.
Mr. Vucurevich would become most well known for his banking interests. For more than 50 years he had controlling interests in banks across the Upper Midwest, including South Dakota. He also found time for public service and was an active supporter of higher education in South Dakota. Mr. Vucurevich established numerous endowments at various colleges in South Dakota as well.
His ventures in banking, public service, and his support for community affairs enabled him to establish the John T. Vucurevich Foundation. This has been a nonprofit organization committed to helping the poor, distressed, and underprivileged. The United Way, Black Hills Workshop, Youth and Family Services, and Boy's Club are just a few of the organizations that have been helped by the Foundation.
Bruce Bieber
Bruce Bieber, a 1969 graduate of Lead High School, works for Lockheed Martin through subcontractor Advanced Solutions Inc. (ASI) on the NASA ORION Crew Exploration Vehicle program, providing senior test engineering support for the Assembly, Launch, and Test Operations (ALTO) group.
Bruce and his wife, Lucy, live in Black Hawk, Colorado. During his career, Bruce has worked on the Mars Surveyor Program, the Genesis satellite, the Kepler photometer, the James Webb Space Telescope, and now currently on the NASA Orion Exploration Vehicle program.
Bruce served his country for six years in the Marines where he received extensive training in electronics and began his journey through the aeronautics industry. In his spare time, Bruce enjoys pursuing his passion for "cars and racing."
William H. Parker
A graduate of Deadwood High School, Mr. Parker moved to Los Angeles, California and joined the LA Police department in August of 1927. He served as an LAPD officer for 15 years before taking leave to fight in World War II, earning a Purple Heart after being wounded in the Normandy Invasion. Parker became LAPD police chief on August 9, 1950 and was credited with transforming the LAPD into a world-renowned law enforcement agency.
Chief Parker's law enforcement career of 39 years earned him the honor of serving the longest term of any Chief of Police in the history of the City of Los Angeles. He was recognized as "one of the top professional police administrators in the nation."
Chief Parker died in office on July 16, 1966.
